Comments (Jay and Lefty): "Comprising a Number of Original
Tricks, Humorous Patter, and Short Articles of General Interest."
As Harry Leat writes in his introduction, the tricks in this book
are not pocket tricks, but ones which rely on some clever piece of
apparatus. Some of his ideas are ingenious and have never been
published before. Harry Leat was quite a character and it shows in
his creations and ideas.
